There are many U.S. colleges that offer bachelor’s, master’s and even Ph.D. degree programs in sports Team management and sport sciences. The programs offered by these schools were reviewed and are approved by the Commission on Sports Management Accreditation (COSMA).

So maybe the sports teams that pay players $20m a year should pay for those programs?In general, maybe the way we pay for higher education is way off? Too much of the (inflated) price tag goes to the taxpayer (via federal loan programs)? The relationship between supply and demand is distorted, so we have many young people with useless degrees who can't get jobs.

It kils me that I get no tax credit or voucher for the money I spend to send my kids to a private school. My exorbitant taxes pay for the City of Baltimore's failing schools, a system I don't even use.I have always paid my own way. I worked myself through school and I lost sleep over it. I worked 20 hours a week and I carried a full load of classes at a top university. I allowed myself 5 hours of sleep at night. Why should someone else get a free ride on my dime?

The thing with colleges is that they provide students with information, what students do with that information is up to them. I've known some graduates who graduated with masters degrees and were completely clueless too, it's like the rest of the world. Few winners who critically think, and a whole lot of losers who do not.

Yep. The movers and shakers did not have an education so much as a mind and a heart that look for something creative. That's not something you can teach. It happens regardless of intent or preparation. The rest of us get degrees and hope we will be in the right place at the right time.

When government started spending and giving money away like drunken sailors businesses built around that money to absorb it. It's not a difficult concept, and it's one brought up often by founding fathers as caution against frivolous expenses.

Can this government fix the mess they created? I don't have faith in that personally.
